[7:10128] I know this might veer off topic: Maybe I am biased (and partly curious), mostly due to working at a company that actually did refer to its building sub-units as pods, and subsequently its network subnets (with a scheme pretty much dictated by the company campus' physical subdivisions) as pods, but does the Cisco HQ campus have multiple building pods as well? It is an actual term used in architecture. Has it perhaps slipped over into being part of Cisco's network terminology? Perhaps this preconception on my part had me thinking of the pods in the BSCN book in this manner. I did notice, perhaps I am wrong, but the individual pods in the Cisco book tend to have separate areas (in OSFP scenarios This might seem like a stupid question, but sometimes having english as my 2nd language, makes it more difficult for me to understand what the writer is trying to tell me.

Reading the explanation at http://www.dictionary.com gave me NO answers to this one, and the closest thing I can guess my self to is that POD's are kind of departments or subnets, unless the Prince Of Darkness has been involved with Cisco networks lately :-) Thanks for any replies to this one.

Im in a dilemma. I need some career advice from some experienced professionals and anyone else that has been on the same road. I am 22 years old I have one more test (CIT) to complete my CCNP. I have been planning on studying for the CCIE and taking the lab within the next year and a half but Im not sure now. My problem is that I want to get my computer science degree and I dont think I can get both and work at the same time. I am about 2 and a half years from graduating. I also work 40 hours a week as a computer tech for an elementary school. I have hands on experience with cisco only in a lab enviroment, not in a production network. I feel confident that I want to keep learning networking, but at the same time I feel I am missing something by not having a degree and not having a broader understanding of computer systems. The longer I work and put off school I know it will be harder for myself to get the degree. Now I am deciding to go to school full time (after I save up some money) and get the degree done. I guess the only reason I feel hesitant about doing this is because I am getting closer to getting the CCIE and that has been my focus for the last year and a half. But I have been thinking about it and I think having the degree behind me will help in the long run if I want to go into management or if I decide to maybe get into network programming (which I know nothing about but am kinda curious to learn). Part of me wants to get into the field now, but the logical part of me is telling myself to wait and get the degree. I dont want to get a cisco related job while going to school because that will postpone myself getting the degree or take away from my job because I am focusing on school.

Thanks for all of the help and interesting discussion. I passed the CCIE written today and it was a bitch. The written is only a test that is a turning point for focus. Yes it is hard and it also can be somewhat convoluted. To avoid all of the questions about what did you use and what was on the exam here is a synopsis that does not violate the agreement. (I hope!)

Read all of the white papers that you can get your hands on from Cisco, concentrating on the areas that you feel you are the weakest. Hands on is the best teacher but it does not substitute for understanding. As Cisco says the steps are - Hands on, self study training.

Re: Distributed Director [7:5794]
I use one for load balancing between two IIS servers. One server in Jersey and one in Richmond VA. Basically a www request gets forwarded to the Dis Dir. by the DNS server and then the router picks either of the two servers at random to send the user to the intranet home page. The servers are replicated with Veritas replication exec at the www level so they have the same web content. The director polls each of the servers every 20 secs on port 80 to confirm that web content is available. If one of the servers is down then the user is always forwarded to the server that is up. I have the older version though. I believe there is a lot more functionality to the newer models.

To determine whether a Flash memory device is full, use the dir command. To permanently delete files on a Flash memory device, complete the following task from privileged EXEC mode: Command Purpose squeeze filesystem: Permanently delete all files marked deleted in Flash memory. Command : squeeze filesystem Purpose :Permanently delete all files marked deleted in Flash memory When you issue the squeeze command, the router copies all valid files to the beginning of Flash memory and erases all files marked deleted. At this point, you cannot recover deleted files, and you can now write to the reclaimed Flash memory space. Note The squeeze operation can take as long as several minutes because it can involve erasing and rewriting almost an entire Flash memory space. Verify Flash To recompute and verify the checksum of a file in Flash memory on a Class A Flash file system, use the verify command. - Original Message - From: Deloso, Elmer G (WPNSTA Yorktown) To: 'Bryan In Richmond' Sent: Thursday, May 10, 2001 4:36 PM Subject: RE: Unable to Erase FLASH.

Re: CCIE written preparedness [7:3951]
I guess I'd just like to add that I finished my CCDP/CCNP this year so I guess I'm in a bit of a rush to sit the written as alot of the material is still fresh. I have studied a considerable amount but taking the Boson really shook my confidence level. I read the QUE book but perhaps I should spend some more time with Doyle and Caslow... Just fishing for advice. Thanks to all for the great forum. I don't participate alot but I do read the posts (most of them) every day. Bryan - Original Message - From: IOSNOS To: Sent: Wednesday, May 09, 2001 11:43 PM Subject: CCIE written preparedness [7:3951] Are the Boson CCIE written practice tests similar to the types of questions on the real written? If I can't do at least a 70% on the first run through of a Boson test should I wait until I can to take the real written? I hate to use practice tests but I tried a trial run through on one of them and didn't do that well so I am wondering if I should delay my written until I can score better on the practice exams as an indicator of my knowledge up to this point.
